My concern with that big a change each day is you not matching the tank temp exactly w/ the water changes...and that much fluctuation that often for the fish can cause extra stress and stress causes issues.

I use a glass thermometer on both the tank and the water I refill with. There is less than 1/2 of a degree in temperature. (Aqueon water changer)
